Fixed.
I just used a different repo ... aarnet mirror instead.
BTW that was mirror.linux.org.au that failed before. not mirror.debian.au
note that you can also tell apt-get to just ignore missing packages, to go ahead and upgrade as much as it can. it'll upgrade everything except the missing packages and anything that depends on those package versions. from the apt-get man page: -m, --ignore-missing, --fix-missing Ignore missing packages; if packages cannot be retrieved or fail the integrity check after retrieval (corrupted package files), hold back those packages and handle the result. Use of this option together with -f may produce an error in some situations. If a package is selected for installation (particularly if it is mentioned on the command line) and it could not be downloaded then it will be silently held back. Configuration Item: APT::Get::Fix-Missing. useful any time a debian mirror lags behind, which is a lot more common if you run sid or testing than if you run the stable release. later, when the mirror has caught up, you can run the 'apt-get dist-upgrade' again. craig -- craig sanders <cas@taz.net.au>
